tobacco plantations

Tobacco plantations are large farms dedicated to growing tobacco plants, which produce leaves used in making cigarettes and other products. These farms typically involve carefully planned cultivation, including selecting suitable land, planting, watering, fertilizing, and controlling pests. The harvested leaves are then processed through curing, drying, and fermentation to prepare them for manufacturing. Tobacco cultivation can impact the environment through deforestation and pesticide use, and it often involves complex economic and social factors, including labor practices and global trade. Overall, tobacco plantations are a key part of the tobacco industry supply chain.
